Chapter 164: Special Plants
As soon as Ye Lingyue turned around, when she saw the scene in front of her clearly, her whole person froze, and the stone dish she was holding in her hand fell to the ground with a "clang".
Is this also called a garden?
Ye Lingyue looked at the eyes, the plants in the garden were growing "lush", the roads and houses were not visible, and even the sky was blocked.
She finally knew why the teahouse proprietress looked at her like a silly hat.
Not to mention anything else, just cleaning up this garden, which has not been pruned for I don't know how many years, it is absolutely impossible for her to be idle this month.
"The yard will be left to you, as long as you can clean up these plants, you can use any tools. ”
Xiao Chun said, for fear that Ye Lingyue would regret not doing this job, and immediately disappeared like a rabbit.
"Well, I haven't talked about wages yet. ”
In fact, Si Xiaochun doesn't have to run so fast, she can't bear the liquidated damages of two intermediate spirit stones for the time being, so she will still do this errand.
Ye Lingyue had no choice but to resign herself to her fate.
She didn't do it immediately, but first used her mental power to roughly search the entire courtyard, in this courtyard, there are really a lot of flowers and trees, and there is a rockery of a small scale, but because no one has cleaned it up all year round, it has long been submerged.
It seems that the old city lord of Huangquan City is a very elegant person, opening a teahouse and raising flowers, but I don't know why, after he passed away, he made a good garden deserted into this appearance.
In addition, the climate of Huangquan City is a bit weird, there is very little sunlight, the sky is full of haze, and most of the flowers and trees have withered.
Therefore, the whole courtyard looks like there are many plants, but in fact, it is dominated by a hemp plant that looks like a sword.
This kind of hemp grass plant has very tall leaves, as tall as Ye Lingyue, two palms wide, and there are pale golden plant patterns on the leaves.
They were like warriors with spears in their hands, occupying the entire courtyard.
Ye Lingyue was on the periphery of the garden, found a firewood knife, and with a strong swing, under the knife, the half-moon-shaped yuan blade slashed on the hemp grass with a pop.
I thought that the hemp grass would crack in response to the sound, but who knows, as soon as Yuan Li touched the wide and narrow leaf surface of the hemp grass, it actually made a sonorous sound, stirring up a spark.
The hemp grass made a "buzzing" sound, the sound was harsh, and the worse was still to come, the knife that Ye Lingyue had cut out earlier was actually bounced back.
Ye Lingyue immediately stopped the firewood knife in front of him and blocked the Yuan Blade.
But the firewood knife also cracked in response to the sound and broke into two.
"What the hell is this?"
Ye Lingyue looked at the intact hemp grass in front of her in surprise, and then looked at the firewood knife that had been broken in two.
The iron peeking out of the hatchet's opening showed that it was not ordinary iron, but meteor iron.
Although the city lord's mansion is dilapidated, according to the buildings and utensils, it is obvious that the previous old city lord was also exquisite, and even the tools in the garden are all good things.
This firewood knife, if it is to be brought to the market, it can be regarded as a ground-level spiritual weapon.
Ye Lingyue was speechless, and it took a long time to come back to her senses.
It seems that she also underestimated the job of being a gardener.
"Master, this kind of hemp grass seems to be heavenly sisal, and it is obviously not possible to cut it with brute force. ”
Seeing that Ye Lingyue was frustrated, the little nightmare jumped over.
"You know where this hemp grass comes from, tell me about it. ”
Ye Lingyue had a headache in the face of this courtyard full of at least tens of thousands of heavenly sisal.
"Heavenly sisal is a kind of demon grass, legend has it that it was originally cultivated by a heavenly demon because of the lack of minerals in the demon world, and refined into a demon sword, which is comparable to the spiritual weapon of the heavenly level, so it got its name. The growth of this kind of heavenly sisal is very vigorous, and in places where there is enough evil qi, it can grow into the shape of a heavenly sword in a year. Even with a Heaven-level spirit weapon, it would be difficult to cut down. ”
When the night rabbit fled in the demon world, he had seen this kind of heavenly sisal.
"Is there a way to get rid of this kind of thing? Otherwise, I may not be able to complete this job in a month. ”
Ye Lingyue had a bitter face.
"I don't know about this little one. "Unfortunately, the Bad Rabbit has only heard of this plant, but it doesn't know exactly how to eradicate it.
"Well, if I think about it again, there will be a way. ”
Ye Lingyue glanced at the dark and oppressive courtyard, and did not drill the tip of the horns, so she simply went back to the servant's room arranged for her by Si Xiaochun first.
Around dusk, the city lord of Huangquan returned to the city lord's mansion.
Si Xiaochun had already prepared a hot meal.
Since the unprovoked disappearance of the former old city lord, Si Xiaochun has been serving the daily diet and daily life of the female city lord.
The city lord of Huangquan took a look at the food, two vegetables and one meat, and the cleaning was very exquisite.
She sighed.
"Xiaochun, I've worked hard for you in the past few years, in fact, with your ability, you should have become an official demon hunter a long time ago, and you didn't have to be trapped in the City Lord's Mansion. Although you were raised by the City Lord's Mansion, after so many years, the kindness you owe to the City Lord's Mansion has long been paid off. ”
"Lord of the city, Xiaochun's life was saved by you and the old city lord, if it wasn't for you and the old city lord who adopted me as an abandoned baby, there would have been no driver Xiaochun in this world. Si Xiaochun respectfully laid out the meals one by one.
"You can also sit down and eat, the amount in the house is not enough, you have been carrying me to eat some leftovers, don't think I don't know. ”
The female city lord gave half of her meal to Si Xiaochun.
The young man was stunned, turned his face away and wiped the corners of his eyes that were a little sour, and was silent, and the master and servant began to eat.
"By the way, the city lord, someone came to apply for a gardener today, looking at her appearance, she should be able to do it for a long time, and the old city lord's garden can finally be cleaned up. ”
Si Xiaochun said happily.
Earlier, when Ye Lingyue was cutting the sky and sisal, Si Xiaochun also secretly observed.
Seeing that although Ye Lingyue was a little annoyed, she didn't turn around and leave immediately, she was still very happy in her heart.
Someone cleaning the garden?
The Yellow Spring City Lord's chopsticks trembled visibly.
"Let's talk about it first, the City Lord's Mansion doesn't have any extra money to hire people at the moment. ”
"With only one intermediate spirit stone, I calculated, this expense is still there. ”
Because his own master is a person who can't manage accounts, Si Xiaochun is very good at accounting for housekeepers at a young age.
So in the case of no income at all, the City Lord's Mansion was supported for several years.
"How many times have I told you that I taught you martial arts, not for you to do such a job as ironsmithing, and you are not a monk. ”
The female lord of the city suddenly started a fire.
Si Xiaochun was stunned and fell silent for a while.
"That's it, that person won't be able to do it for long anyway, and he won't be allowed to find anyone to come over and do such a senseless thing in the future. ”
The female city lord didn't want to say more, and she didn't ask who was going to apply for this errand.
Horizontally and vertically, it is impossible for that person to hold out for long.
If you don't use that method, let alone a month, it's a year, and it is impossible to get rid of it.
